Simultaneous posting glitch?

This has already happened to me 2-3 times tonnight.

Usually when people post things to a topic while you're typing, when you hit "submit" you get a warning that tells you that someone has posted to the topic while you were typing, and shows you who posted what--presumably so you don't say anything redundant or confuse the topic and can alter your post accordingly.

I didn't get such a warning on 2-3 occasions tonight.

Not that it's THAT big a deal, but I found it to be a convenient feature.

It could be that someone is posting, but their post actually goes in slightly after yours, i.e. while the page is reloading. Can you give me a link to a thread and page where it happened?

Oh, not sure I remember now, it was several hours ago. I'll try to make a note of it...but their post actually appears before mine, which means I should've got the notification thingy.

But then technology hates me, so I'm not surprised.
